College of Southern Nevada Receives Classic Corvette Donation for Student Restoration Project

Story from KSNV NBC Las Vegas — The College of Southern Nevada (CSN) has received a generous donation from Ken Goodrich, chairman of Goettl Air Conditioning & Plumbing. Goodrich donated a 1978 Chevrolet Corvette, which he recently acquired at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Las Vegas, to CSN’s Department of Applied Technologies.

This classic Corvette will serve as a hands-on restoration project for students, providing invaluable real-world experience. Upon completion, the restored vehicle will be sold at a future Barrett-Jackson auction, with the proceeds directly benefiting the college.

“I’ve always been a champion for the trades,” Goodrich stated, highlighting his commitment to supporting higher education and vocational training.

This donation not only fuels student learning but also reinforces the importance of skilled trades in today’s workforce.

Navy A.’s C3

Corvettes are synonymous with Southern California. My first encounter to Corvettes was in 1966 when I was 9 years old in Newfoundland. It was a beautiful copper colored roadster parked in the back lane next to my mom’s restaurant. I managed to get my own ‘Vette in 1980. It was a 1973 Stingray 350 cu. in. with a Turbo 400. I hope to own another C3 someday.

Some Random Thoughts

Why is it called “gift wrapping” when it feels more like “gift wrestling”?

The holidays are the only time of year when it’s perfectly acceptable to eat cookies for breakfast and call it “festive.”

I love how my New Year’s resolution to get fit starts right after I’ve spent a month eating like I’m training for a food marathon.
